I meant various strains of anti-war/Communist-leaning (specifically,Marx)/anti-imperial views across countries through the late 1800s to the late 20th century have been deplatformed (be it newspaper bans or other restrictions on speech). As for not mentioning this sentence in a macro-issue, my point is to rather look at it in a time-frame of a century or more, and argue that "deplatforming" has hit multiple shades of the political spectrum in the long run.
